You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Tim Lister, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Hell In A Bucket (talk) 15:01, 16 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tim Lister until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Hell In A Bucket (talk) 15:14, 16 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, in case the above leaves you none the wiser about what to do, the key thing is to provide sources that are reliable, independent of Lister, and that show he is the subject of substantial attention. Thus, a brief mention in a listing that he is giving a talk does not qualify; nor does anything in a blog (unless by a journalist on his/her newspaper's website); nor does anything written by Lister himself; nor does a passing mention in a serious article. What does qualify is a discussion of his work in an independent book, journal article, conference paper, or institution's website. About three such sources would save the article. Hope this helps.

Thank you. It does help. I have added two more such citations and will keep working while deliberation goes on. As an aside, I'm a relative novice at editing and very much impressed with how these deliberations work. Whatever the outcome, the process strikes me as fair and fairly administered.

Disambiguation link notification for June 27[edit]
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Douglas H. Chadwick, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page National Geographic (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
Thanks, I definitely missed this nuance. Have fixed. Camdenmaine (talk) 13:53, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Berlin Conference may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "[]"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.
